"The World's Oldest and Most Outstanding Sherry Producer". The Valdespino family have been involved in the sherry trade since 1430, making Valdespino the oldest sherry Bodegas in existence. We were very lucky to have Guillermo Arce here from Jerez in Southern Spain, to present the oldest and and finest of all of their V.O.R.S bottlings (Very Old Rare Sherries). These Soleras were established towards the end of the 19th Century, and are among the greatest and most expensive sherries ever produced. Each one represents over 100 years of careful selection by generations of expert cellar masters. We tasted the Innocente Single Vineyard Dry Fino. Tio Diego Dry Amontillado, Solera 1842 Oloroso VOS, El Candado Pedro Ximenez Sherry, Cardenal Palo Cortado VORS, Solera de su Majestad Oloroso VORS, Ninos Pedro Ximenez VORS, Coliseo Amontillado VORS. Everyone was incredibly impressed by the quality of these amazing wines, especially the ones from the very old blends, Truely a taste of history itself.
